This year’s European Mobility Week, which is traditionally held from September 16 to 22, aims at ‘Better connections’, and it tries to connect every aspect of sustainable transport in the urban environment, which can connect people, places, logistical challenges and politics. So, let’s connect the city!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– We have designed the program of the Split biking tour in two parts. The first includes riding through the city streets from saint Frane church to \u0110ardin<\/strong>, and in the second phase, an appropriate entertainment program in \u0110ardin is planned, which would include a raffle, a bicycle alka and a musical program<\/strong>. We invite all interested citizens to join us on September 24 at 16:00 o\u2019clock<\/strong>, as well as to follow our website and social networks in order to find out all the new details about the event – said Tihana Arapovi\u0107<\/strong>, Sunce expert associate and organizer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n – In addition to the fun part, the bicycle event in Split is a perfect opportunity to review current challenges in traffic and create opportunities for progress towards more sustainable mobility. The main purpose of the Split biking tour is to draw the attention of citizens and responsible persons to the growing problem of congested roads, promote the use of alternative forms of transport and advocate for the improvement of cycling infrastructure in the city of Split, with the aim of contributing to the development of sustainable tourism in the city of Split – added Arapovi\u0107<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n – The number of cyclists in the city of Split is growing every year, and this means of transport, along with the residents of our city, is increasingly being used by tourists – both local and foreign, especially since Split got bike rental stations, as well as new bike paths. In order to enable the most functional bicycle transport system possible, Sunce will emphasize the purpose of sustainable transport and thus tourism this year as well – emphasized Gabrijela Meduni\u0107-Orli\u0107<\/strong>, executive director of Sunce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n European Mobility Week <\/strong>is a European Commission campaign that encourages small and large cities to introduce and promote sustainable means of transport. Complementary to this campaign, the primary goal of World Car Free Day<\/strong> is the promotion of sustainable forms of transportation. Car Free Day is celebrated throughout the European Union, where most cities close traffic to cars in central areas (Madrid, Zagreb,…) during this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n – For the purpose of celebrating the Split biking tour, we will try to close the roads of Split in the same way, on that day. And we invite you to ride your bike to work, to your favorite cafe, to the beach or just for fun in the week of September 16 to 22, and come ready to participate in the Split bike fair on September 24 – concluded Meduni\u0107-Orli\u0107<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe main purpose of the Split biking tour<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
